The envelope may not look like much but view D is my perfect blouse. I mean, it has a peter pan collar.
My latest version is made from some quilting cotton that was on the sale table at Spotlight for $4/m. It has little nests and birds on it. I used some buttons from an op shop.
For day one of OWOP I wore it with a self-drafted skirt (and by self-drafted I mean, I took a rectangle, pleated it and added a waistband), vintage bakelite bangles and saddle shoes and some random tights.
That print is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteYes, quilting cottons have the best prints.
DeleteThat fabric is amazing, it's perfection. Love that blouse and liking how easy you make the creation of that skirt seem! x
ReplyDeleteI know. You should've seen how fast I snatched it up from the sale table when I saw it. Thanks. The skirt really is that easy.
DeleteWow, I love it. I've never made a blouse, or a top at all. I intend to try making some thing other than dresses this year, woman can not live on frocks alone lol. Xx
ReplyDeleteThanks! I hardly ever used to make blouses either but then I realised that I needed some to go with my skirts.
DeleteWhat a find for three bucks! I look forward to seeing your different versions. The eggs in the nests are so lovely.
ReplyDeleteI know, I couldn't believe it was so cheap. Yeah they are, I love bird related stuff.
DeleteYAY! I absolutely ADORE this fabric...what a great choice for the peter pan collar blouse!
ReplyDeleteMe too! Thanks.
DeleteYour little blouse is awesome! I adore the fabric, only you can come up with such fantastic prints!
ReplyDeleteThanks. What can I say, I'm just obsessed with any and all prints.
DeleteVery cool blouse! Love the print and the collar.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kat!
DeleteAn incredible outfit! Awesome fabric, button, tights... everything. You rock x
ReplyDeleteThanks! You rock too.
